In the second half of the race in Monaco, Fernando Alonso lost seconds after a lap from the leaders, holding back rivals led by Lewis Hamilton. During the race, Lewis expressed his dismay at Alonso’s slow pace on the radio, to which Fernando responded in his usual style after the finish.
“It’s not my problem,” Fernando replied after the race. – We had two options, which tires to put on the car: repeat the Hard, which we had in the beginning, or switch to Medium. We chose the second option, but we thought the tires would last less than the remaining 33 laps. We just didn’t know if we could finish without an extra pit stop.
That’s why I saved the rubber in the first 15 laps of the segment. It was very easy for me to hold the position. When they told me that Esteban had been given a penalty, I started attacking in the remaining laps.
